Has anybody made a switch from a specialized role into a recruiting position focused on hiring others with a similar skill set? Any tips or perspectives on making a pivot like this would be greatly appreciated!

I haven't, but I've known people who have. The best part of this pivot, from their perspective, is you already have a really good eye for identifying good candidates.

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?

I have been at my company for 3.5 years.

Even though the job duties did not really change.
I’m not sure the best way to approach this. Has anyone else had a similar experience or know how I should advocate for myself?

Finish the sauce with a knob of butter and coat your pasta. Cavatappi works well here. Don’t forget to shave a little Pecorino Romano
